Smackdown Sportfishing 

Welcome to Smackdown Sportfishing - your gateway to the amazing and memorable experience fishing for Salmon, Trout, Walleye, and other species on Lake Ontario, Erie, and Huron.

My name is Captain Vlad and I am inviting you to join me for trip of a lifetime fishing for salmon, trout and walleye. I am dedicated to providing my guests with unforgettable fishing adventure, making memories, putting smiles on their faces and fish in the boat! Should you wish, your catch will be cleaned and filleted to be cooked and served at the family dinner.

You will be fishing in a 26ft Albemarle 265 Fisherman Express, new for 2025 season! This boat is equipped with a very powerful 375HP Volvo Penta and a 9.9 HP Yamaha kicker.

This boat is fully rigged for big water with latest electronics and it ensures a comfortable fishing experience.

Though I am relatively new to Great Lakes and chartering, I am very enthusiastic and meticulous about the proper trip planning, execution and achieving results. This ensures success, trip after trip, even on the toughest days on the lake.

All guests are automatically entered into the SCGFA Spring Salmon Derby, the GOSD Salmon Derby, and the SCGFA Fall Derby. Over the past seasons, I am proud to say that all I have won and shared over $10,000 in prizes with my guests.

Guests are asked to bring only their favorite snacks and drinks, fishing license. I will always call you the day before and advise on proper clothing as well for the upcoming trip. We have everything else on the boat including high-quality 60 SPF sunscreen that we use in our family.

Whether seasoned anglers or novices eager to learn about Great Lakes fishing, I invite you to join me for an unforgettable fishing experience. Book your next adventure today and create lasting memories on the water!
